tlie city it is the people against the bosses that meeting simply knifed the direct primary law in letter and spirit that law was meant to take from the bosses and re store to the people the rank aud file of each party the authority to say who shall be nominated for public office in my opinion it is beyond the sphere of action of the managing committee for it to attempt to choose between a number of candidates for each of whom there is a demand by representative aud influential followers of unquestioned democratic prin ciples a battle for decency former mayor dunue in a statement issued over his signature said iu part the people of chicago are going to find before this primary campaign is over that it is nothing more nothing less than a battle to restore honesty decency aud ef ficiency in the affairs of the government of the city of chicago and i am one who feels profoundly that they may be trusted to choose the instrument with which they will work out the reforms that they are demanding reports from the meeting of the sulll tanites show they were so desperate to make a showing that they voted and counted for graham the alleged proxy of a member of the managing committee who is unaltt-rnbly opposed to graham this committeeman was patrick f haynes of the twenty-sixth ward it is true my proxy was voted for gra ham without my permission and in the face of my refusal to allow
